Can a Foreigner Apply For a Malaysian Driving License?

Can a Foreigner Apply For a Malaysian Driving License?

Not only Malaysians, especially those who have reached the age of 17, are allowed to secure a driving license for cars (class D) and if they are 16, a B2 motorcycle license, even foreigners, such as Bangladeshis, Vietnamese, Indonesians and even foreign students from Nigeria, Sudan etc can infact secure a Malaysian driving license.

Besides students, I have frequently been asked by Malaysians, who have married ladies from mainland China, whether or not their “spouse” can indeed be allowed to secure a Malaysian driving license.

Just a few days ago, while busy painting the grille of my fence, a young Vietnamese girl aged about 25 years or so, inquired of me if I was indeed a driving” instructor.

Upon my letting the Vietnamese lady know the fact that I was indeed a driving instructor, she went to relate to me that she wants to secure a Malaysian driving license.

Is it possible, she wanted to know.

Further investigations into her background revealed a few astonishing things, albeit sad.

The Vietnamese girl informed me that:

1. She was married to a Vietnamese man who is working here.

2. She has the proper documents such as a marriage certificate and the necessary visa documents too.

3. The Vietnamese lady is infact working as a waitress at one large restaurant in Jalan Meru, Klang.

The Vietnamese girl, who talked to me about her intention and desire to get a Malaysian driving license, in reality, had all the qualifications necessary to secure a Malaysian driving license indeed.

But what the above foreign lady related to me further shocked and saddened me.

She told me that she had been cheated by no less than 3 unscrupulous driving school instructors, Malays, Chinese and Indians as well.

The Vietnamese girl had lost quite a large sum of money to them.

I then went on to advise her that today’s world is full of cheats, unscrupulous, and bad people, who will not fail to make a fast buck, especially upon foreigners like her.

How did the foreign Vietnamese girl come into such a dire predicament?

Driving school operators had infact promised to help her pass the Highway Code.

You see, foreigners working in this country usually come from poor financial standings back home in their native country.

In our country, Malaysia, they may very well be married to a fellow countryman.

They usually rent rooms here and as far as I know, live a very frugal and difficult life.

Their salaries, as a matter of fact, are not high.

But I believe, many of them work hard and long hours trying to etch out a decent livelihood here in Malaysia.

But these foreigners can easily be cheated by Malaysian businessmen.

If foreigners are lucky, they will end up making a small fortune from their hard toil they undergo here in Malaysia.

Eventually, some of them might be able to take home a small fortune after spending a few hard years of work in this “land of promise”, Malaysia.

Vietnamese, like all normal human beings, would also like to enjoy a little bit while they are here in our country.

They, I believe, would like to visit supermarkets, to go shopping, visit malls, our beaches like Morib Gold Coast, visit Genting Highlands, the island of the Pearl of Orient(Pulau Pinang) and even Cemeron Highlands to enjoy its cool and beautiful atmosphere, if they can!

But in order to do the above things that I have suggested, foreigners must first of all have access to cars.

They cannot possibly depend on our notorious public transport which is most unsatisfactory.

And to own cars, foreigners, especially a Vietnamese for example, must possess Malaysian driving licenses, first of all.

To buy a new or second hand car here in Malaysia, it is my belief is not beyond the reach of most foreign workers here in Malaysia.

A good and reliable second hand car, for example a 5 year old Kancil cost only around RM12,000 – RM15,000.

A 5 year old reliable second hand Proton car can be available at around RM15,000 – RM20,000.

Now let us come back to the questions of “can a foreigner working here in our country attempt to secure a Malaysian driving license?”

As I reiterated earlier on, the answer is indeed yes! But do tarry a while longer.

Allow me to finish my explanation first.

A foreigner, especially a Vietnamese for example, must be able to pass the Highway Code or “undang-undang” test in English or in Bahasa Malaysia.

The Highway Code is actually part I of our driving test conducted by the Road Transport Department.

The Vietnamese lady, who asked of me if she could learn to drive and secure a Malaysian driving license, a few days ago, while I was busy painting my garden fence, had wanted to know, if there were ways and means of helping her pass the Highway Code test.

I shall not proceed on to explain what the above statement means.

In driving school circles, this is indeed a “sensitive issue”.

It shall therefore not be broached here.

Not wanting to disappoint the Vietnamese lady about her request, I decided to give her my handphone number.

I infact asked her to call me a day later for my answer.

Without fail, the lady did call me one day later to get my reply.

I understood her anxiety and I would like to assist her if I could.

But in reality, my hands are tied.

Asking for advice from friends involved in this industry, I finally gathered information that a foreigner who wishes to secure a Malaysian driving license should ideally brush up his or her prowess in English and Bahasa Malaysia so as to enable them to pass the “Highway Code” test.

The answer which I eventually gave to the young Vietnamese girl who had the intent to secure a Malaysian driving license was, “do not use hanky-panky means”, as it would not be worth the while.

If checks should eventually be made into the manner in which a license holder has fraudulently obtained his driving license, stern actions will be taken against the wrongdoers by the authorities concerned.

I am uncertain as to whether the advice given to the Vietnamese foreigner will be heeded or otherwise.

In my heart of hearts, I hope it is taken heed of to avoid any unforeseen developments later on!

As such, I hope all foreign workers currently working in Malaysia, will take special heed of this article’s warning and refrain from attempting to secure a Malaysian driving license via “fraudulent” means!

Currently, I am tutoring an Indonesian Chinese lady how to drive. The above lady already possesses an Indonesian driving license. But due to reasons known only to the authorities alone, she cannot convert her license into Malaysian license.

And so, she has to attend the 5 hours Kursus Pendidikan Pemandu (K.P.P.), the 6 hours theory class, then do her Highway Code and take up practical driving classes all over again in order to get her Malaysian driving license.

there was a buzz that people can use automatic transmission (AT) car for the practical driving tests. Any updates on this? Main reason is my American spouse (who never had a driving license in the US) just need to learn to drive my AT vehicle. Do you give driving lessons using AT cars?

hi cikgu,
my wife is a singaporean but with spouse visa to stay in Malaysia, can she learn her driving here? May i know where you located as im trying to find instructor to teach her. And also a question which need your expertise, can she drive a Malaysia registered car? As i read through the website, many said that Singaporean are not allow to drive Malaysia registered car.

Your spouse’s background is rather vague. With a visa and also married, I believe she qualifies to get a Malaysian license. Yes, she can drive a Malaysian registered car if she has a license. Singaporean can drive Malaysian registered vehicle.

You should have got an IDL from your country before coming here. Malaysian authorities decided if your S. African license can be converted or otherwise. You could attempt getting a Malaysia license. However, it’s long process. It will need anything from 45 to 60 days.

Re: How can a Malaysian with a British driving license obtain a MYS driving license?

Hi Cikgu,

I have read some of your blogs and your replies and think that with your professionalism you may be the best person that can give me suggestions. I have tried to search for some answers on your blogs but perhaps my case is a bit “complicated”.

I am a Malaysian residing in the UK and is expecting to be living in the UK for at least a few more years. I may be moving to other countries but not sure about the chance of moving back to Malaysia for good.

I possess a valid Malaysian driving license (for around 10 years now) and I am thinking of converting my driving license to a UK one. To do so, I have to give up my MYS DL. The reasons that I want to convert it is to avoid the hassle and the cost of getting a new license here and also because that a MYS IDL can be used here for up to 1 year only.

My questions are, how can I obtain a MYS DL in case if I need it again someday? Do I have to go through all the theory and driving tests again provided that I have a British DL? How much does it currently cost to obtain a DL?

In my opinion, Malaysian licenses cannot be converted into British domestic license. Britain does not accept our licences for conversion, unfortunately. If looks as if therefore, that you’ll have to test for a British license if you want one.

Thank you for your informative blog. I have a question about converting a driving license.
I have a British Driving License but it expired in March 2013!! do you think it is still possible for me to do a conversion to a Malaysian Driving license ? or do I have to do my license all over again ?

Lucky that I found your blog here. Thank you so much for the info.
I am a Singaporean and I am moving over to Malaysia soon.
I won’t be working there because I am currently working in Singapore.
Just a quick question.

How can I take a driving license in Malaysia ?
for your info, I don’t have Singapore driving license.
This is my first license.

Foreigners including Singaporeans eligible to secure Malaysia licenses. Amongst other things, you should be at least 17 years old, know English or BM besides having your Singapore documents such as identity card or passport.

my wife is indonesian with spouse visa living in malaysia, thinking getting driving license here. been driving with indonesian’s license for about 2 years + and about to expire. but since renewing her indonesia’s license is quite hassle requires go back and forth.

I am a Singaporean married to a Malaysian currently staying with my wife in KL Setapak. Is it possible to take a car licence here? I went to an agent for driving school but they insisted that I need to have a visa. I am not working here but staying on monthly basis where I need to detour monthly to get my passport stamped again.

I did call up JPJ Putrajaya but they said I had no problem taking a licence and the marriage certificate is only needed if I wish to convert my licence. Now I am confused and wondering which agent will take me in. My wife is currently 2 months pregnant and I wish to get my licence as soon as possible before she is not able to drive. Please advise and help me recommend a driving school.

hi sir
i m from nepal I have a old driving licence of india. issue on 2005 and expired on 2008. can now I m in malaysia as foreign employee. I want driving licence just for motorcycle. can I exchange? or what is procedure n who much it will cost?

Thanks for the information, it is indeed very useful. I’m having trouble as all driving schools are asking for astronomical amounts of money. I have a driver’s license from my country and I know how to drive (for more than 12 years) and I don’t see why I need to go to driving school. I don’t mind taking the test, it’s perfectly fine with me, I have been driving in Malaysia for 3 year already and I work here too. Is there any way I can take a self-sufficiency test? As in, learn the material myself to take the written test and then just go do the practical test and have my license? The schools are asking for a lot of money and to go to school and to drive with an instructor. I can’t do that, I’m at work and I don’t have time to be leaving to get a Malaysian License. Please, any help or options are greatly, greatly appreciated.

Many foreigners are not aware that most countries’ license can be converted into Malaysian license. So my advice is, don’t be hoodwinked. Go directly to JPJ office to seek advice if your license can be converted or not.

Hi, I was just reading this article and it was really helpful. However i do have a few questions of my own for instance, I am a 19 year old, International study here in Malaysia and i have about 4 years of studies to go and travelling back and forth to Uni isnt easy, and since you say that it is possible to get a license in Malaysia, are there any specific required documents that i should bring up when wanting to apply for a licence? And if I was to attend the lecture will it be in English? And how long does it usually take to get a licence so that I can start driving normally?

I’m British and I have a UK car driving license. I’m on a tourist visa going out of and back into Malaysia every three months. I also rent a property here and have a small business. The authorities obviously have no problem with this and I can drive a car on my tourist visa. However, I need a B2 motorbike license (I don’t have a UK one) for business and I can’t get one unless I have a six month visa which I can’t get until business has been running for awhile. Do you know any legal way around this? It’s absurd that I can start a company here, rent a property, come in and out of Malaysia yet I can’t get a motorbike license.

Cikgu, I need some advise.
I have a foreign co-worker and not many times ago they bought a malaysian driving license from somewhere and they swear it’s genuine.
It’s the new type with hard plastic, complete with their address (but I think it doesn’t exist).
It’s very similar to the one issued by jpj and they claimed jpj has record of it in their database.

Problem is recently our HR confiscated all of these and they want to make new by going jpj and claim it was ‘missing’. Can really do this or not?

Good Day to both,
First and foremost, I really like the personal touch of this driving blog and the loads of tips and information you’ve shared. Very enlightening indeed. :)
I am a Singaporean living in KL. I hold a Singapore driving license but have not been driving for the past 6 years, not in Singapore nor in Malaysia. I’ve only tried driving about 10 times ever since I acquired the license. I am not a confident driver and have fears of it. However, I find myself handicapped in Malaysia if I do not drive.
I really wish to overcome my fears and equip myself with good driving skills.
Can you please help me? Can you recommend if I should take a refresher course or go through the entire course for a Malaysian License? I work at Kota Damansara, can you recommend a patient instructor for me?

Thanks a lot for your great info. I am indian and married a Malaysian girl on may. As per new regulation in emigration office I have to wait 6 months from the date of marriage to get the spouse visa. So that now I have only the long term social visit pass (6 month). Now as I understand from your previous reply since I have the marriage certificate I can get the Malaysia DL rite?. If I am correct please let me the best driving school who can teach me in English or Tamil in Bayan baru -penang. And if possible please let me know how long it will take to get that DL and fees terms.

i am a foreigner without any driving license in my country. i am a syrian by the way. how do i apply for one? i do not want to sit for any examination. am willing to pay for the driving license. if you can get me one, do drop me a line.

Dear Cikgu,
I am a new student at …University in KL. Iam attending Intensive English course before taking department of Law. I know I should take the Highway Code test first in order to take Malaysia license later.
So may I ask which standard English they’ll require and what documents I need to show. Besides that, I have Vietnamese motorbike licence, I am wonder if I can use it for riding and owning a bike here?
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Regards,
Jane.

For sg you can get license in malaysia but cannot convert to sg afterwards unless you have reason for long stay in malaysia(like how i’m studying long term: more than 6 months/1 year in malaysia). I’m a sgrean and got my license here too, but i have valid reason for conversion to sg license after I go back.

Hello! I am from Philippines and for now I am holding social visit pass, because my employer is processing my professional visa at the moment, so my question is am I qualified to get a malaysian driving license here in Malaysia even I am still holding a social visit pass?

Coz i had ask a company of a instructor do they teach the foreigner, but he say nope. He’s holding a visa with multi entry. i know the charges quite expensive for foreigner who want get a car licence right?

Good day,
I have a question. My husband passed driving exam 3 months ago, but every time when he is going to driving school to check if license is ready, they say next week and next week, and they don’t speak English, so we cant get detailed explanation. From your experience how long does it take from exam to receiving license. How can we check if some documents are missing or where to call. My husband is Polish, with working visa here.

Hi,
I am a Malaysian on a ‘Dependent Pass’ staying in S’pore and holds a S’pore driving licence. When applying for the S’pore driving licence, I had to get a clearance letter from JPJ. My Malaysian licence will be expiring next month (5 years) and I found out that I am unable to renew my Malaysian driving licence ‘online’. It indicated ‘blacklisted’. I do not believe I have committed any traffic offence. Could it be that you are not allowed to hold both a Malaysian and a S’pore driving licence at the same time?
Thanks and kind regards

I am a UK passport holder, 46 years old. Currently live in Thailand and I hold a Thai car and motorbike license and also a UK driving license. I am moving to KL in May/June and would like to secure a Malay driving license. I have been driving for almost 30 years. How do I obtain the licenses?

Hi.
My boyfriend is Thai and he is working in KL. He has a driving license obtained from Thailand.If he wish to ride motorcycles here. Does he need to take the test or just simply convert the license to Malaysia’s license?
Thanks

Not sure if JPJ allows Thailand license to be converted to Malaysian license. Go to JPJ office and make enquiry. If he cannot convert his license, he has no other choice and has to go through the process to acquire a local driving license.

My husband is from Portugal and we have been living in KL for more than 3 years. He has a spouse visa and a driving liecense from Portugal but unfortunately non-convertible. He would like to get a local driving liecense. Please advice.

Thanks a lot for the information you continue to provide your readers with. Love the idea of this blog as well as your storytelling writing style.

I’ve been traveling since the age of 16 so I haven’t had much time to get a driver’s license – I’m 27 and married now! If I have the time, I would like to get my license later on this year. Having read your ‘about’ section, as well as your posts, I’m convinced that I should seek your expertise.

Could you please email me your rates and the estimated time/schedule, if any? Keep in mind that I’m a foreigner on a spouse visa, married to a Malaysian.

A blessed day Sir/Madam

thank u so much…. Sheryll from Masai

Hi, I’m an Indonesian woman from Bandung, married to a Malaysian. I have been holding Malaysian Driving license for almost 15 years now. I’ve been living in KL for about 17 years. I actually already got an Indonesian driving license when first time I came to KL but i didn’t drive so much especially when i was in my pregnancy so by the time i was going to drive few years later, my driving license went expired.

I was suggested to take a driving class all over again here in KL since there was no way my expired Indonesian license to be converted.
There were no problems at all for foreigners to get a malaysian driving license. Just follow the procedure given by JPJ.

I registered at a driving school near my house that there was only manual car license and soon i was placed in a class. They charged me RM800 (back in 2004)
I passed the highway code test straight away, passed in parkings but i fail in road test once due to miscommunication i guess.
So to take another road test it was necessary for me to pay another extra rm50.

During my class/test i noticed there were foreigners too. Some are workers, some are spouses of expats living in KL (my expats wife friends also took driving class in KL).
To me it was no problems to follow the class and exams for Indonesians since the explanations and exams are delivered in Bahasa Malaysia which is undrstood by Indonesians in general. But for people from other countries with different language it’s very crucial for them to learn Bahasa Malaysia first so then they can follow class and understand the traffic rules and proceed with exams.
That’s all from me and thanks.
